where a species in decline still clings on.
[ screeching ]
[ gasping ]
when we got back to the states, we were in shock.
we couldn’t stay in south africa.
we had our visas revoked.
and when we got back to washington,
we lodged several protests
with the american and south african governments.
[ sighs ]
the south africans eventually did respond.
the dna samples that they had confiscated
from the university lab where they were being processed –
they shared those with us.
dr. davis: because the dna readings that came back
were so close to human dna,
the lab that did the tests claimed
that they had been contaminated with human dna.
“how else,” they said,
“could the genetic profiles have been so similar?”
they discredited the results…
and they destroyed the samples.
dr. robertson: the feeling was like something out of orwell.
this was big brother.
they were rewriting history,
basically writing this creature out of existence.
and the question i ask myself is why?
are they protecting their testing?
are they — are they keeping the creatures for themselves?
are they testing the creatures?
we don’t know. we still don’t know.
all we had now was time.
we just kept poring over it –
the beachings with reports of bodies washing up on shore…
where local officials had closed off areas,
and in some cases, reportedly,
with the help of american officers in civilian clothes.
we kept thinking back to the beaching that happened
right here in washington, that naval medical team.
we had thought they were analyzing their tests on whales,
but now we had a slightly different theory.
we tracked down the kids that had made the original report,
and the navy had spent a lot of time with these kids.
they had even visited them at home.
and they had convinced the kids
that what they had seen was actually a seal,
a seal that had decomposed,
and that’s why it looked strange.
the boy had drawn a picture of what he saw.
now, nobody outside of the scientists we work with
or the government officials that had confiscated our materials
could have known what the skull reconstruction looked like.
but this kid had a drawing of what he had seen.
and it was a match.
he had seen the same thing.
and that’s not all we saw.
the boys’ mom agreed to show it to us.
they hadn’t shown it to anybody.
the navy had not thought to check the kid’s camera phone.
now, that’s not the first time
the military’s gotten caught by a camera phone,
but back then, most people didn’t even have them.
i doubt the investigating officer
even bothered to check it.
this kid had kept it. he’d kept it all that time.
[ cellphone beeps ]
[ birds cawing ]
[ screeching ]
you’ve just seen footage
of what appears to have been a mermaid.
but what other footage is out there?
coming up, shocking new evidence
that has never been seen before
that we’ll reveal during a live interview
with dr. paul robertson,
immediately following this broadcast.
stay tuned.
[ screeching ]
dr. robertson: the first time i watched the video,
i remember feeling a chill,
and not from the shock of seeing it alive,
but i remember thinking
about the moments before the sonar blast,
that this creature didn’t stand a chance.
[ whales singing ]
narrator: the mermaids travel with whales.
they migrate from warm southern waters,
where, like the whales, they give birth to their young.
now they make their way to the northern feeding grounds.
whales offer protection from orcas and open-ocean sharks,
and females with young can draft off them,
conserving energy as they swim
up the long length of the pacific coast.
the deep ocean has been their last hiding place,
but now, even here, there’s no refuge.
and whales cannot protect them
from the new threats that are gathering.
they swim through a stretch of water in the pacific northwest.
u.s. navy ships were also there that day.
what happened to them next
was captured on noaa audio recordings.
[ horn blaring ]
[ muffled explosion ]
man: we never found another living one –
at least, not during my tenure with the navy.
when i resigned,
we weren’t even sure if there were any left to be found.
the creature we pulled off the beach in washington state
died in 2007.
we kept it alive as long as we could.
i know what i did was wrong.
i knew it was wrong while i was doing it,
and i have to live with that.
my only hope now is that, by coming forward,
it might help protect any of them that are still out there.
we knew that they were washing up with the whales.
what we found was that
the beachings were happening along migratory routes.
dr. robertson: they didn’t just associate with the whales.
they migrated with them.
we were gonna try to make contact.
[ gulls crying ]
we knew we were in the right vicinity when we saw the whales.
and we started the recording,
and we waited to see if there was anything out there.
[ chattering, howling ]
there was something out there.
brian was certain he saw something.
and i’m pretty sure i saw something, too.
[ engine revs ]
we — our activities were being observed.
i mean, this was big brother.
and anything we would have recorded that day
we weren’t gonna be able to keep.
we were not gonna get the story out that way.
dr. davis: brian was the first to leave the agency.
paul and i left noaa not long after that.
i haven’t spoken to brian since he left.
i believe he thinks that
the only way to save them is to find them.
but i don’t think that anymore…
and i don’t think paul does, either.
dr. robertson: brian had become consumed,
and he’ll follow that call to the ends of the earth.
and he may very well find them. i know he’s still looking.
after that day, for me, i’m not sure i can help.
and i’m not even so sure we should try.
i started thinking of them as fellow beings.
and the last time we lived alongside a fellow human species
was neanderthals.
we displaced them.
some scientists think we actively hunted them,
that we devoured their very existence.
it’s the same thing.
what we did on land to one of our own,
we’ll do in the sea.
we’re not so good at coexistence.
sometimes other responsibilities supersede science.
my only goal is that the navy stop their sonar testing,
that court inquiries open into their activities
that then lead to court orders to stop it.
mermaids have persisted only because they can hide.
and i hope they stay that way. i hope they stay hidden.
i don’t want to hunt them anymore
because…they don’t want to be found.
[ dolphin clicking ]
well, forget what we’re claiming,
forget the recordings that remain,
forget the sworn affidavits from other scientists,
and forget our own cultural references of mermaids.
there is another culture that remembers them.
nature doesn’t lie, so look to nature.
there are a few places left on earth
where wild dolphins will hunt with fishermen.
they’ll actually help humans catch fish.
this happens in brazil,
in coastal west africa, in southeast asia.
fishermen go down to the edge of the water
and into the shallows.
they’re calling them.
they call in the dolphins, wild dolphins from the sea.
and the dolphins answer the call
by driving in schools of fish towards shore.
then the fishermen encircle the fish schools
and all the dolphins with their nets.
the dolphins don’t panic. they stay entirely calm.
they know that the fishermen will let them out
as they pull the nets tight.
they let the dolphins out before they pull the fish ashore.
and then the dolphins wait in the shallows,
bobbing with anticipation in the water
as the fishermen give them their share.
they toss fish to the dolphins to eat.
they divide the catch, essentially.
dolphins and people split the spoils.
they share the fish they caught together.
cooperation between two animals of two different environments –
there is nothing else like this on earth.
and nobody knows how it began, how this partnership started.
it’s one of the great mysteries of the oceans,
how this partnership between people and dolphins evolved.
how could people teach dolphins to do this?
well, we didn’t.
we didn’t teach dolphins to do this. they taught us.
and i think that they learned it from someone else.
we are not the only culture with a memory of mermaids.
